Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-tert-butyl-6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,7-naphthyridine (5.1 g, 23 mmol) and 45% hydrobromic acid in acetic acid (70 mL) was heated in a sealed tube at 100° C. for 1 h, cooled to RT and concentrated. The residue was dissolved carefully in 20% potassium carbonate solution (100 mL) and extracted four times with EtOAc. The combined organic phases were dried, filtered and concentrated. Recrystallisation from TBME-hexanes gave 3.7 g (77%) of the title compound as a white solid.
